There are pros and cons to using open source versus web scale agility. Each company will have to determine if either service is the right option for their company current and future needs. It will be interesting to see which companies choose open source over web scale agility. Here is an article on scale agility http://www.cmswire.com/customer-experience/want-to-understand-scale-and-agility-open-a-box-of-legos/ Global stated that web-scale IT will be used by 50% of global enterprises by 2017 https://www.gartner.com/newsroom/id/2675916 Reply Post Message Messages List Start a Board Login 50% 50% freehe 8/24/2017 9:12:18 PM User Rank Platinum Solutions I think each company has to determine the best solution to address their cusotmer needs and problems. When moving to a new technology or initiative companies have to have a good strategy, plan for organizational change, executive support and a contingency or mitigation plan.

I don't believe every company needs web scale agility. I don't think every company needs to use open source because open source may not be a good fit for every company.

That's an unlikely proposition. However, I would argue that every organization needs open source. It underpins so much of infrastructure today.

But it will all work out in the end for them.
